The Plum Blossom Scholar's Young Widow

Writing isn't easy. Thank you for supporting the official version! "Bows deeply!"

My next novel will be the pseudo-incest story Jade Mirror Stand. Check out the blurb in my author column, and please add it to your favorites!

Lu Li was the top third-place graduate in the imperial examinations in the eleventh year of Yuanzheng.

Everyone said he was brilliantly gifted and learned, and with his extraordinary looks, he was the very image of a refined gentleman.

He entered the local administration as a top third-place graduate, digging canals, building roads, creating ponds, and planting mulberry trees. He was highly respected in his jurisdiction.

In the fourteenth year of Yuanzheng, a prominent local gentryman in Luzhou filed a complaint with the Tongzhengsi, accusing Lu Li of abducting a woman and abusing the common people.

Smiling, he replied to the Tongzhengsi official, "My wife and I were married three years ago. How can you call that abducting a woman?"

After arguing his case, Lu Li clasped his hands behind his back and leisurely returned home.

The first thing he saw was his wife, her face full of terror. She twisted her handkerchief in her hands, brows knitted, retreating again and again until her back hit a pillar. She was as fragile as a lone flower in the wind.

Lu Li smiled, his face gentle as jade. He stepped forward and drew her into his arms, whispering ominously beside her ear, "Use whatever tricks you like, my dear. I promise you'll never escape my grasp."

Ning Xun had already died once.

She never imagined that one day she would fight him so hysterically, all for the sake of escaping the man she had once loved so deeply.

Every day after their reunion, she begged him, then later scolded him in fury. But no matter how she pleaded or reasoned with him, it always ended in Lu Li's most extreme possession and demands.

[I am your sister-in-law!] Ning Xun trembled as she wrote down his elder brother's name, never expecting it to drive his hatred to its peak.

He bit her hard, until their lips were smeared with blood and its metallic sweetness spread through their mouths and throats. "So, sister-in-law, do you remember how you used to sneak around with me?"
